On the new USA Network drama "Dig," Ori Pfeffer portrays Golan Cohen, a tough detective with the Israeli National Police. One of the things that the Israeli actor enjoys the most about the series is that it films in many different locations. "There's one scene that explains it best," says Pfeffer, 39. "The walk to the apartment was shot in Jerusalem, inside the apartment was shot in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and exiting the apartment was then shot in Dubrovnik, Croatia. I believe it's hard to beat a scene that was shot in three different continents! It's pretty crazy and fun at the same time."
